I'll look into the implications of this.  I was following those articles 
I keep talking about in Linux Journal, but I see the scripts in 
/usr/share/openldap/migration use 'account' instead of 'inetOrgPerson' 
so that's probably the way to go.

Actually that's not the cause.  I'm using the older automount-style 
LDIFs for autofs, like:

# auto.master, domain.com
dn: ou=auto.master,dc=domain,dc=com
objectClass: top
objectClass: automountMap
ou: auto.master
 
# /home, auto.master, domain.com
dn: cn=/home,ou=auto.master,dc=domain,dc=com
objectClass: automount
automountInformation: ldap:ldaphost.domain.com:ou=auto.home,dc=domain,dc=com
cn: /home

Hence the errors about nisObject lookups failing.  It appears that the 
current autofs startup script for FC1 wants the newer nisObject form as 
in your e-mail rather than the one I'm using.  This is, of course, also 
the one generated by the current migration scripts.

Sigh, don't really want to rewrite my LDIF files but may have to.
